Our CMs are too slow to drop back and help out too which is why teams keep getting chances by crossing to the free man.
The formation itself isn't the problem, it's that we're playing it wrong. Wenger just picks the players and waits for them to figure out how to play it themselves. It's not working. Why don't we just go back to the 4-3-3 that we already know inside out?
